Cannes is also called the pearl in the crown of the Côte d’Azur and lies 35km from Nice. It’s not only famous for the annual Film Festival, but also for couture, clothing-optional beaches and boutique hotels. One of the most famous 5 star hotels in Cannes is definitely the Carlton. Unlike Nice with its gravel beaches, Cannes has the most beautiful sandy beaches. The marina is an interesting combination of fishing boats and expensive yachts, one even bigger than the other. In front of the coast is a small island group, the Îles des Lérins. On one of the islands, Saint-Honorat, monks make a Chartreuse-like liqueur, called Lérina.
